Additionally, Lionsgate's similar film My Bloody Valentine about relationships and death that made over $102 million worldwide shows that a thriller with close thematic links could also be highly successful if distributed by Lionsgate.

Evaluation question 3
This document discusses choosing the correct film distributor to promote a media product. It recommends selecting a well-known institution that has experience and success in the genre of the film. The group chose Lions Gate Entertainment because it is popular and produces high quality films, including successful thrillers like American Psycho, Saw, and The Hunger Games. Lions Gate's experience and large audience in the thriller genre will help attract viewers and ensure positive outcomes for the group's thriller film.
Question 3
The document discusses potential distribution options for a film called "Impercieveable". It suggests that Paramount would be a good fit as the distributor since they have distributed similar films in terms of genre. Specifically, films like "Shutter Island", "Shooter", and "Friday the 13th" that are tension thrillers with atmospheric scenes. The document also notes that the film's appeal would likely be limited to UK audiences due to its storyline, and proposes some possible marketing strategies like television advertising, bus ads, magazine posts, YouTube spots, and actor interviews if Paramount were to distribute.
Evaluation question 3
A media institution refers to the people and organizations involved in producing and distributing media texts, such as companies, producers, and distributors. The document discusses what type of media institution might distribute a horror film product. It suggests that a major company could widely promote the film, but acknowledges that many horror films are distributed by smaller companies. Ultimately, it determines that Film 4 would be the most realistic distributor, as it supports both low-budget and blockbuster films, focuses on the UK market, and could handle the non-professional standard of the opening sequence.
What kind of media institution might describe your
Lionsgate would be the most likely distribution company for my thriller/horror film because they have successfully distributed similar films like The Cabin in the Woods, You're Next, Saw, and A Love Song for Bobby Long. As an independent distributor, Lionsgate would promote the $8-12 million budget film through social media, three promotional posters with positive reviews, and a trailer released 4 months before to generate awareness and interest among the target audience.
Question #3
The document discusses choosing a production company and distributor for a media project. It recommends Twisted Pictures as the production company because they specialize in horror and thriller genres and have experience working with Lions Gate. Lions Gate is identified as the preferred distributor since they have successfully distributed similar genre films like the Saw franchise. The main challenge identified is that these companies focus on large-scale productions so an opening media sequence may not be considered.
Evaluation task 3
This document discusses film distribution and strategies for marketing a new film. It begins by defining distribution as when a company buys the rights to a film or produces films themselves, then markets and releases the films. Major distribution companies that might be interested in an English-set film are identified, like Miramax, because they have international appeal. While the film may particularly appeal to UK audiences, distribution through an American company could expand its reach. Self-distribution is considered but would be very expensive, so using an independent distributor could be a more affordable option to advertise and release the film.

Distribution for our film.
Warner Bros or New Line Cinema would be suitable distributors for a new psychological thriller film. While comedies are more commonly distributed, New Line Cinema has previously distributed similar thrillers like Se7en. Warner Bros has also distributed films like I Am Legend that resemble the psychological thriller genre. The film targets teens across Europe and the United States by portraying common problems in first world countries.
Tre task 3
The document discusses film distribution, including defining a film distributor as the company responsible for marketing a film through setting release dates and examples of major distribution companies like Paramount Pictures. It recommends the UK distribution company Kaleidoscope Film Distribution as a good choice for a psychological thriller film. The film would likely appeal most to UK audiences given its British setting and characters. Options for release strategies and exhibition include using social media for promotion, film junkets to generate reviews, and self-distribution through film festivals but with disadvantages of being time-consuming.
Task 3 - Distribution
The document discusses film distribution strategies. It defines distribution as sharing a film with an audience through a distributor. For their thriller film, they identify that Metrodome, a UK-based independent distributor, would be a good fit as the audience would be local and Metrodome could advertise and ship the film to British cinemas. Self-distribution is also considered but has disadvantages like being time-consuming and potentially limiting sales options without established buyer relationships.
Media
The document discusses marketing strategies for a crime/thriller film targeting teenage males aged 16-24. Key points:
- The target audience is teenage males because the film features weapons like guns and handcuffs that younger viewers may find disturbing.
- The genre of crime/thriller was chosen because it allows conventions like weapons that will engage the target audience. Research showed this genre is popular with teenage males.
- The film stands out by resolving the central problem, unlike most successful films, and by incorporating suggestions from the target audience about what they want in this genre.
- Marketing will use billboards, posters, and social media to constantly remind the target audience, who spend a lot of time

This document discusses potential film distribution strategies for the thriller film "Submerged". It suggests that 20th Century Fox Studios may be a good fit for distribution since they have distributed similar thriller films in the past. The target audience is identified as women ages 25-34, though the film could potentially appeal more broadly. General marketing strategies like identifying what engages the target audience, advertising where they will see it, and using different techniques are discussed. Self-distribution is also mentioned, though it comes with advantages of full control but disadvantages of lacking industry knowledge and connections.
Distribution
This document discusses potential film distributors and distribution strategies for a new psychological thriller film created by students. It analyzes that similar films like The Sixth Sense and Shutter Island were distributed by Hollywood Pictures and Spyglass Entertainment, and Paramount Pictures, respectively. As the film has comparable psychological thriller elements but a unique storyline, those established distributors may be interested in distributing the student film. However, the lack of famous actors could make distribution more difficult. The document also considers target audiences, potential marketing strategies involving digital promotion and word-of-mouth, a staged release plan, and self-distribution options versus working with a major distributor.
Distribution media
This document discusses film distribution and options for distributing a low-budget British thriller film. It explains that a distributor sells a film to venues like cinemas, streaming services, and TV. For an independent, small-scale production, distribution is likely through smaller British distributors or self-distribution using online platforms. The document recommends marketing the film via YouTube to appeal to a wide audience affordably. While self-distribution maintains full control, it is also very time-consuming without a distributor's industry connections and experience packaging films for buyers.
Media Question 3 - Maisie
Film4 would be the most effective distributor for the film. Distribution is crucial for a film's success in reaching its target audience. While companies like Disney and Warner Brothers distribute blockbuster and family films, and the film's plot is more suited to independent viewers. Film4 has experience distributing similar gangster genre films to the intended audience for this independent film. Miramax is also an independent option worth considering.
Question 4
The document discusses the target audience for a horror film media product. It considers other horror film ratings which range from 15 to 18. It aims its film at a younger generation who appreciate original and creative filmmaking methods. Specifically, it targets those who prefer "mental horrors" over jump scares. The filmmakers chose a BBFC rating of 15 to ensure the film is taken seriously without seeming childish, as some content could be harmful to younger viewers. They chose the audience after completing the film so they knew what to expect and could rate it appropriately while still potentially appealing to a wide audience.
Evaluation: Q3) What kind of media institution might distribute your media pr...
Dimension Films would be an ideal institution to distribute the author's thriller film called "The Unseen" for several reasons:
1) Dimension Films typically distributes thriller and horror films rated for mature audiences, matching the genre and rating of "The Unseen".
2) Successful Dimension Films like "Scream" featured similar elements of mystery and masked villains found in "The Unseen".
3) Choosing this established institution would increase viewership and reputation for "The Unseen" due to Dimension Film's popularity and past successes distributing films like "Halloween" and "Sin City".
Question 3)
The document discusses choosing a media institution to distribute a thriller film. It recommends researching similar thrillers to see which institutions distributed them and the expectations associated with each institution. The author's group chose New Line Cinema because it distributes thrillers rated 15 and over, like their film, and released the psychologically complex thriller The Butterfly Effect which uses flashbacks like their film. New Line Cinema has also distributed many well-known thrillers like The Conjuring, Final Destination 5, Seven, and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
Media distribution Question 3
An independent film would most likely be distributed by an independent media company rather than a large studio like Warner Brothers or Sony, as the large studios are unlikely to take on an inexperienced film that could damage their reputation if unsuccessful. Some potential independent distributors mentioned are Pulse Films, Blink Films, Base Studios, Be the Fox, and Arrow Media, as independent companies are more willing to experiment with new ideas and help get their company known to a wider audience.

Lionsgate Films would be a suitable media institution to distribute our horror film. As a major film company that creates and distributes many horror films, Lionsgate would be interested in our film since it falls into their genre. While our low-budget British film may only appeal to UK and US audiences, Lionsgate has the international reach, especially in the US, to distribute it to those markets. Marketing strategies like social media promotion would be important to target our teen and young adult audience.
Mediaaaaa
The document discusses film distribution, which involves getting a film to consumers through deciding show times, locations, release dates, and marketing strategies. Producers can directly distribute to cinemas or home video. The author identifies potential film distributors like Lionsgate, Warner Bros., and Rogue Pictures based on their experience distributing similar films. While self-distribution maintains full control, it is time-consuming; the author prefers working with a distributor. Marketing strategies to create hype include trailers, interviews, ads, premier events, websites, and merchandise. The film will appeal to UK and US audiences ages 15-24, especially women, and can be distributed internationally with subtitles.
Media institution and distribution
Distribution involves getting a film to audiences through cinema screenings or home video. The major Hollywood film studios that dominate distribution are Warner Bros, Disney, Universal, Sony, Fox, and Paramount. This psychological thriller film aims at a young adult audience and will be distributed by Sinuous Pictures, allowing for worldwide promotion. Potential third party distributors that could be suitable due to their experience with similar films include Rogue Pictures and Warner Bros. Self-distribution is an option but has disadvantages like greater workload and lower profits compared to using an established distributor. Various marketing strategies like trailers, interviews, billboards and premieres can help generate hype for the film's release.
Question 3
Studio Canal was chosen to distribute the sci-fi film because it has the highest number of sci-fi films distributed and a well-known name, and its logo could be easily customized for the opening sequence. A distribution company markets the film by selling it to cinemas and on DVD, and promotes the film using billboards, TV, and other media to get as many viewers as possible. Studio Canal was selected over Lionsgate and Universal because its other films were a better genre fit and would be more open to distributing a film following similar conventions.
Eval q 3
The filmmakers would likely use a low budget distribution company because no one in their film is very well known, making it harder to make a large profit like high budget films. Some companies that have distributed other low budget horror films are Anchor Bay Entertainment, Camp Motion Pictures, Eden Entertainment, Sub Rosa Studios, and Tapeworm Video Distributors. An independent distribution company would be a good choice as it could use various marketing techniques to help get the film seen.
Question 1
The document discusses how the media product follows conventions of the thriller genre. It analyzes conventions used, such as setting the opening in a family home, using dark colors and low key lighting to build tension, and including a female antagonist instead of the typical male. Research on films like "Obsessed" and "My Bloody Valentine" informed decisions around themes, characters, and settings. Elements like costumes, makeup, target age rating, and opening credits were chosen to be conventional to thrillers and appeal to audiences. The narrative structure follows Aristotle's model of creating equilibrium, disequilibrium, and a new equilibrium.
Evaluation: Question 1)
The document discusses different film techniques and narrative structures. It describes how the thriller uses iconography from "The Disappearance of Alice Creed" and lighting from "Insidious." It also references the house setting from "Psycho." Additionally, it outlines Todorov's theory of narrative equilibrium, disequilibrium, and new equilibrium. Finally, it mentions Barthes' belief in using semiology, including symbolic connotation, semic denotation, and cultural understanding to define narrative.

My music video uses, develops, and challenges conventions of real media products in the following ways:
1) It uses conventions such as themes, genres characteristics, and theories around star images and popular culture promoted by scholars like Goodwin, Dyer, and Adorno.
2) It develops conventions through elements of mise-en-scene like lighting, settings, and costumes, as well as techniques like shots, angles, and editing.
3) It challenges conventions by presenting a unique artist appealing more to subcultures than mainstream audiences, and using some unconventional locations and iconography.
Overall, my music video both adheres to and innovates on standard conventions of the alternative R&B

Choosing Lionsgate provides benefits like access to their fan base and confidence that the film will succeed similarly to Lionsgate's other thriller films.
What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

Lionsgate also has a reputation for horror films that could help audiences understand the film's genre. Alternatively, an independent distributor like Warp Films could be a match since it has insight into promoting low-budget films, though the release would be more limited.
Eval q3
Paramount Pictures would be well suited to distribute the media product because as a major production company, it is responsible for funding, producing, and distributing blockbuster films across different genres, including films similar to the one produced. Paramount has experience with successful movies like Paranormal Activity and Dreamgirls that follow the same genre as the media product. Its reputation for producing quality films and wide distribution capabilities make it a good choice to market and release the film to the public.
Question 3
The document discusses choosing the right media institution to distribute a film. It explains that the genre of the film and the distributor's reputation are important factors. Three potential distributors are described: Soda Pictures, a smaller UK/Canadian company with film festival connections but less recognition; and New Line Cinema, a major US studio that is well-established in thriller films and has resources to broadly market a film. New Line Cinema is selected for its experience with the thriller genre and ability to reach a wide audience.

Dimension Films in particular has had success with films like Scream that share similarities in style and genre conventions to the media product. Lionsgate is also a good option as they have a strong reputation for distributing horror films that could help audiences understand the media product. Either company would provide targeted marketing to audiences interested in independent horror films.
Question no 3
Lionsgate would be a good distribution company for a new horror film because it is experienced in distributing successful low-budget horror franchises like Saw and The Last Exorcism. Lionsgate is able to market and distribute horror films worldwide in a way that generates profits far beyond the films' original budgets. As a major studio focused on independent films, Lionsgate has the resources to strategically promote a new horror movie and help ensure it is financially successful.
Media Evaluation Question 3
The document discusses choosing an appropriate media institution to distribute a film product. It is important to identify an institution that matches the film's genre and audience.

New Line Cinema would be the ideal institution to distribute a thriller film because they have a strong reputation for distributing popular thrillers like The Conjuring and A Nightmare on Elm Street. Choosing this institution would benefit the film by allowing it to reach the target thriller audience and leverage New Line Cinema's reputation in the genre to generate interest and expectations around the film.
Evaluation 3
Universal Studios would be the best media institution to distribute my media product. As a large conglomerate, Universal Studios has wide reach and successful marketing techniques that would help my thriller genre film gain widespread recognition. Their successful distribution of films like Psycho and Jaws, which achieved box office revenues much higher than their budgets and received Oscars, suggests they could help my film succeed as well. Distributing with Universal Studios would provide benefits like ample funding for production elements like disks, soundtracks, props, settings and actors. Their experience bringing other films awards and acclaim is what I hope my media product could also achieve with their distribution.
Question 3
Distribution involves releasing films to the public in a way that attracts large audiences. Filmmakers typically hand over distribution to companies that specialize in determining how and where to distribute films. There are major and independent distribution companies, with majors like Warner Bros. and Disney having more money to distribute to mass audiences, while independents like Lionsgate and BBC Films distribute to niche audiences. The film discussed would be a good fit for an independent distributor like DreamWorks due to its psychological thriller genre and storyline being similar to the film "The Girl on the Train".
Media question 3
New Line Cinema would be an ideal media institution to distribute our thriller film. When selecting a media institution, it is important to choose one known for similar genre films that appeals to the same target audience. New Line Cinema specializes in thriller films, as evidenced by films like "The Rife." Researching New Line Cinema's thriller films helped our group understand the genre conventions to make our film feel authentic to both the thriller genre and to New Line Cinema's brand. This research also gave us confidence that a family home setting could build tension and suspense for audiences.
Evaluation q3
Lions Gate Entertainment should distribute the media product because it is a large company known for distributing psychological thrillers and romance films similar to "The Secret" in cinemas, on DVD, and through digital distribution. Lions Gate has successfully distributed franchises like Saw and horror films like Drag Me to Hell. Their distribution of comparable genres and positive reviews for similar films suggests Lions Gate could successfully market and profit from the media product by reaching the intended target audience.

Lionsgate has been very successful with the thriller genre in particular. The opening aims to be a thriller and contains dramatic and action elements, making it a good fit for Lionsgate's genres.
Question 3
This document discusses choosing the appropriate media institutions to distribute a film based on its genre. It explains that audiences associate certain institutions with specific genres and will have expectations based on the institution distributing the film. The document then discusses choosing small, independent production (C&I Productions) and distribution (Revolver Entertainment) companies for a youth drama film, as these types of films are typically produced and distributed by smaller companies rather than major studios. Choosing these companies would be consistent with other similar films and help audiences recognize the film's genre.
What media institution would distribute your thriller

It provides guidance on choosing an appropriate distributor by considering factors such as whether the distributor specializes in niche/independent films or mass market films, their existing portfolio and genres, and how the film might fit within their current slate. Data on the distributor's audience and marketing of similar films can support the choice. Visuals like logos and posters should also be included.
Eval 3

As a modern company, Lionsgate is able to distribute the film globally across cinemas and online platforms to maximize the film's audience and increase its chances of success.
Evaluationhhh
New Line Cinema would be chosen to distribute a thriller film because they have experience and reputation in the thriller genre, having distributed films like The Conjuring, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, A Nightmare on Elm Street, and The Butterfly Effect. This would help the film reach the target thriller audience and leverage New Line's reputation to generate audience expectations and interest consistent with the thriller genre.
Q3
An independent film distributor like The Smalls or ICO would be suitable to distribute the film "Chasing Reality" because they specialize in distributing films from independent filmmakers. The Smalls relies on sponsorships and provides feedback to help filmmakers improve, while ICO aims to promote diversity and give films a UK audience. Self-distribution is also an option, but it requires a significant time commitment.

- 2. • It is important to identify and choose the correct institution to create and distribute a film because and audience may have prior thoughts of the company and may have certain expectations of it. A distributor may be focused on a certain genre e.g. New Line Cinema which would be expected to show thriller/action films where as, Pixar Studios would be expected to show animation films aimed at children. Also, popular, institutions tend to have loyal audiences which is why it is important to pick large companies to gain viewers. This helps the audience have an immediate understanding of what genre your film will be.
- 3. • To distribute our thriller we have decided to pick Lionsgate Entertainment. This is because this institution has distributed many thriller films with a lot of past experience. For example, a thriller film from this company is Texas Chainsaw 3D which has made $47,241,945. Lionsgate have a strong reputation which will boost our thrillers reputation also.
